Even though Mendicant Bias' fleet outnumbered Offensive Bias' by 436.6:1, Offensive Bias was designed specifically to effectively counter and exploit Mendicants rampant actions. During the battle, the Halo Array was fired which, aside from killing all sentient life in the galaxy, disabled the percentage of Mendicants fleet which was biological. What happened to Offensive Bias after this success is not specified. | ||
